A METHOD of exciting spectra by a high frequency discharge has been described by Wood and Loomis (NATURE, 120, 510; 1927), Clarke (NATTJUE, 120, 727; 1927), and others. The method consists of sending a high frequency current through a wire coiled around the tube in which the discharge is excited. While experimenting with a low voltage Tesla coil in which the primary circuit power was supplied from a 110-volt buzzer, it was observed that when contact was made between one side of the secondary and a metal support on a diffusion pump, a brilliant green discharge was produced in the mercury circulating through the pump at a pressure of about 5 cm. The spectrum of this discharge showed a very intense emission of the green fluorescence band of mercury.
